. she crisscrossed the country work on behalf of bob dole. she spoke so lovingly and engaging and convincingly on his behalf. i have not seen a male spouse at the caliber of the women we have had, and i think it's fair to say bill clinton was both hillary clinton's best ally and worst detractor when she ran for president. .. they don't know what the role of male is. >> two women that have been very prominent, hillary clinton and elizabeth dole, they are very prominent, politicals. they want to get in there and say some days as well. >> that's very interesting discussion. we talked at the outset that she wrote about nine different women and how you select to them. i selected for that i actually want the three of you to spend a little bit of time developing your thoughts on them. three of them have kind of a direct relationship to the dole institute in kansas and one of them is just the most prominent united states senator. each of you kind of took a lead on these chapters, said the procedure laid down individual person could kind of start, but then the other two could kind of j

't take him long to find his rhythm keeping the a's off balance. bob admitted that his players were frustrated at the plate but that will happen to you when you have 14 strikeouts on the night. 11 of those coming to verlander. >> he has the ability to shut it down when he needs to. he kind of cruises and does what he has to to get whatever to get a couple runners on. >> sometimes you just have to tip your hat and obviously, he gets tipped to a lot. and he did that. >> same pitcher he's been in his whole career. he is using them conveniently for him and using them well. he reached back to the pitches that he needed to get. he is not the guy that is going to keep you from getting on base. when we did, he reached out and made the pitches he needs to make. >> reporter: as for the a's pitching staff interesting first reliever bob melvin call upon was pat nishack who made his first appearance since losing his son earlier this week. and he said it felt like no other as he felt like someone upstairs was looking down on him. nbc bay area news. >> and they are part of our team at comcast spor

in the park are second to none. there is no complex in the world that can touch it. >> i'm here with bob, and he has kindly agreed to tell me everything i need to know about casting. i'm going to suit up and next, we're in the water. >> what any gentleman should do. golden gate angling has free lessons the second saturday of every month. we have equipment show up on the 9:30 on the second saturday of every month and we'll teach them to fly cast. >> ok. we are in the water. >> let me acquaint you with the fly rod. >> nice to meet you. >> this is the lower grip and the upper grip. this is a reel and a fly line. we are going to use the flex of this rod to fling away. exactly as you moved your hands. >> that's it? >> that's it. >> i'm a natural. >> push both arms forward and snap the lower hand into your tummy. push forward. >> i did gave it a try and had great time but i might need some more practice. i met someone else with real fly casting skills. her name is donna and she is an international fly casting champion. >> i have competed in the casting ponds in golden gate park in san francisc

assume you a -- >> i assume you agree with everything bob just said? [laughter] >> and bob is right that you have to sort through these issues, and i think he has come to exactly the wrong bottom line. on the cliff itself, this is an extreme danger to the economy. everybody has their own numbers. you put together the tax increases and spending cuts, and it is something like $640 billion in our calculation. it is something like 4% of gdp. we are looking at 1.5% at best. and you do not have to be a genius to figure of the consequences. we have a recession, and probably more severe one than the cbo said. and it is not just in january. it is already happening now. new york is already seen the implications of the eminent fiscal cliff affecting the economy we have seen a lot of anecdotal reports of businesses looking out the weaker economy and scaling back their plans. the defense contractors must send out notices so employees will be laid off. if you are a dividend investor and you are looking at, tax breaks january 1, you are broglie's starting to worry about the market. this is not som

remains the same. keep it simple. bob melvin wants his players to play loose like they've been doing all season long. that's led to their success and it shouldn't be too much of a challenge for the players who set the goal way back at spring training to go out and win their division. >> i think like anything we've done here recently, we're not looking at a sweep. we're looking at just winning today and we'll deal with tomorrow, tomorrow. there's more variables involved in that right now. ultimately at the beginning of the season your goal is always to tray to win the division. any team who doesn't have an asterisk next to their game, that's what they're looking to do. we also know that today if we do win we get into the playoffs. that's first and foremost. >> our goal is to win the division. many people think we could. being an expert in this game, you don't have accountability. we do inside this clubhouse. that is our goal. i don't know why you would ever leave spring training not trying to win the division. >> if we didn't believe it, we wouldn't be here. the situation right now is rea
